Chapter 140 Rescue from the Cliff
Large, fluffy snowflakes fell in a flurry, dancing in the air like a flock of butterflies.
Gradually, the wind and snow grew stronger, as if they were about to cover the entire world.
At this moment, Ruan Mianmian could no longer accurately identify the direction Yu and Kun were heading; she could only determine from the map that the two were slowly flying towards the bottom of the cliff.
She turned her head and looked at Yong and the others, noticing a hint of grievance in their eyes.
Looking at the enormous wolf heads before her, Ruan Mianmian couldn't help but smile.
She never imagined that one day she would be living alongside a pack of wolves and a herd of elephants in the freezing cold.
Even more interestingly, they were as large as animals from the Jurassic period.
"What are you all complaining about?" Ruan Mianmian asked, puzzled.
Yong said earnestly, "If I had known I could get steamed buns by going down there, I definitely would have gone down!"
He felt no shyness or embarrassment, because he knew that if you wanted something, you had to express it directly.
Upon hearing Yong's words, the other wolf pack members nodded in agreement, a scene that made Ruan Mianmian laugh out loud.
She never expected that steamed buns would have such a huge appeal to them!
Daman and his companions paced anxiously around the edge of the cliff, their hearts pounding like ants on a hot plate.
Although they knew perfectly well that going down would save the baby elephant, they still couldn't suppress their worry and anxiety.
Knowing how much the orcs, including Yong, craved steamed buns, Ruan Mianmian didn't hesitate to buy several bags of them and bring them out.
"There aren't any more, only one per beast," Ruan Mianmian said somewhat embarrassedly, holding the steamed bun in her arms.
After all, Yu and Kun would need to expend a lot of energy to rescue the baby elephant, so she specially gave them two bags of steamed buns in case they needed them.
As for the wolf pack, they are not currently in danger and only need to have a taste of the newcomer.
Upon hearing Ruan Mianmian's words, the beastmen were immediately excited and wagged their tails happily.
Seeing this, Ruan Mianmian couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Then she began to distribute the steamed buns one by one, and each orc received one.
In no time, the bags of steamed buns were gone.
“Daman, this is a type of food from our tribe that can replenish energy. If you don’t mind, you and the other orcs from the elephant herd can try it too,” Ruan Mianmian said warmly, handing the steamed bun to Daman.
Ruan Mianmian could understand Daman's anxiety as a mother, so she kindly carried several bags of steamed buns over.
Daman had already seen Yong and the others' enthusiasm for the steamed buns and knew that they must be food bestowed by the Beast God.
So she accepted it respectfully and expressed her deep gratitude to Ruan Mianmian.
"Thank you, Goddess, for the food. The elephant herd is deeply grateful!"
"Eat it while it's hot, it'll get cold soon." After saying this with a smile, Ruan Mianmian turned around and walked to the middle of the wolf pack.
The wolves surrounded her, forming an impenetrable barrier.
This scene was witnessed by the elephant-like beastmen in the distance, and they couldn't help but feel a sense of astonishment.
As is well known, wolves are known for their calmness and have an innate pride.
To gain their approval and following, one must be an extraordinary person.
Daman distributed the steamed buns given to him by Ruan Mianmian to his people, and they all swallowed them without hesitation.
In fact, they had not eaten anything for three whole days and were now standing there hungry and shivering.
It's important to know that elephants originally lived in tropical regions, and they were highly dependent on warm climates.
Despite their exceptionally strong physiques after evolving into orcs, they still experience various problems from prolonged exposure to cold environments.
This is why Daman was so eager to lead his herd to migrate as soon as his baby elephant was born.
It wasn't that she didn't want to rest and recuperate, but rather that she knew the weather was getting colder and that if she continued to stay there, she would eventually perish.
Only by finding enough food and a warm cave can they survive.
After the elephant-clan beastman ate the steamed bun, he felt a warm current flow down his throat into his body. His originally stiff and cold body gradually warmed up, and even the fatigue that had accumulated over the past few days disappeared.
"How amazing!" exclaimed an elephant-type beastman. "I feel like I've been brought back to life."
Another elephant-type orc chimed in, "Yes, I think so too. This food is absolutely delicious. I feel much more energetic after eating it."
Everyone nodded in agreement and expressed their gratitude to Ruan Mianmian.
Everything was fine on the cliff, but Yu and Kun were not doing so well.
Because they fly downwards, they cannot see what is below and can only rely on experience to find their way.
However, due to the severe weather, extremely low visibility, and strong winds, they quickly lost their sense of direction.
"Oh no, we're lost!" Yu said anxiously.
Kun frowned: "What should we do? We must get to the bottom of the cliff and find the baby elephant as soon as possible, otherwise everyone will be in danger."
The two were in trouble and began to fly down, not caring about their location for now, they would deal with it when they reached the bottom of the cliff.
After flying for about five more minutes, they finally reached the bottom of the cliff.
Below the cliff were thick snow and bushes, where Yu and Kun finally found a foothold.
"Yu, the snow is so thick down here, and especially since the elephant chieftain said that the baby elephant's fur is white, it's even harder to find!" Kun said, looking at the vast white landscape around them.
"Let's look around first. The location the chief gave us is definitely correct. We might have gone astray on our way down, but the baby elephant is definitely at the bottom of this cliff. As long as we search carefully, we'll surely find it!"
After Yu finished speaking, he led Kun to search the vicinity. As he searched, he let out a sharp cry, trying to make the baby elephant hear him and react.
